Analysis# Turkmenistan Population Analysis
Turkmenistan's population of 7.49 million ranks 102nd globally, having grown 23.36% over the past decade at an average rate of 2.1% annually. The country's demographic trajectory peaked in the 1962 decade, indicating that growth rates have substantially decelerated since then, reflecting trends common to post-Soviet Central Asian nations experiencing stabilization after Soviet-era expansion. With 64 years of population data showing consistent but slowing expansion, Turkmenistan's current growth rate positions it among moderately growing nations, neither experiencing the rapid increases of earlier decades nor the stagnation affecting some developed economies.
